Original Arabic

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ بَكْرٍ السَّهْمِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَاتِمُ بْنُ أَبِي صَغِيرَةَ، عَنِ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ سَالِمٍ، أَنَّ عَمْرَو بْنَ أَوْسٍ، أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ أَبَاهُ أَوْسًا أَخْبَرَهُ، قَالَ: إِنَّا لَقُعُودٌ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الصُّفَّةِ، وَهُوَ يَقُصُّ عَلَيْنَا وَيُذَكِّرُنَا إِذْ جَاءَهُ (١) رَجُلٌ فَسَارَّهُ، فَقَالَ: "، ، اذْهَبُوا فَاقْتُلُوهُ " قَالَ: فَلَمَّا وَلَّى الرَّجُلُ، دَعَاهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " أَيَشْهَدُ (١) أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ " قَالَ الرَّجُلُ: نَعَمْ (٢) يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ (٣) ، فَقَالَ: " اذْهَبُوا فَخَلُّوا سَبِيلَهُ، فَإِنَّمَا أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاسَ حَتَّى يَشْهَدُوا أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ، فَإِذَا فَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ حُرِّمَتْ عَلَيَّ دِمَاؤُهُمْ، وَأَمْوَالُهُمْ، إِلَّا بِحَقِّهَا " (٤)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Aws that once we were sitting with the Prophet (ﷺ) at Suffah. The Prophet (ﷺ) was advising and admonishing us when a man came and began to whisper to the Prophet (ﷺ). The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Go and kill him. Then he said: Does he not testify that there is no god but Allah? He replied: Of course, but he says this word to save his life. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Leave him. I have been commanded to fight people until they say there is no god but Allah. When they say this sentence, their lives and wealth become protected except by the right of Islam.
